After they left, the detective agency was on my own, and I only found out at this time why Sun Tielong likes to watch the news and watch forums. Lewen's novel chapters are updated the fastest, and there are many unimaginable things in them, and some of the articles are particularly attractive.

I opened the article and read it intently......

"Zhenlong" is the name of a small remote mountain village. At the end of the Ming Dynasty and the beginning of the Qing Dynasty, a group of people who fled the war arrived here, and when they saw that this place was secluded and livable, they settled down. There was a Taoist priest in the accompanying crowd, it is said that he found this place according to Feng Shui, according to the Taoist meaning should be named "Zhenlong", but the villagers were afraid of things, afraid of angering the emperor, so they changed their name to "Zhenlong". But now it seems that the worries of the Zhenlong people are purely superfluous, it has been almost a hundred years since the ancestors fled here, and no officials or soldiers have appeared in their village once, so this has been a blank area of political power for a long time, and some important decisions in the village are generally decided by the respected old-timers in the village. Although he successfully avoided the scourge of war a hundred years ago, due to the traffic blockage in Zhenlong Village, and the fact that there was only one Taoist scholar in the crowd when he fled, and there were no books and ink left behind, the generations of Zhenlong people became "blind". The turning point came more than 30 years ago, when an armed police force prospecting for gold discovered the area. At first, the captain was just happy, thinking that it was really good to be able to find a village to spend the night in this deep mountain and old forest, and when the captain led the group to the village to find the village chief, he found that everything was not as simple as he first imagined. He was surprised to find that the villagers were still wearing crowns and sackcloth. The two sides looked at each other for a while, but fortunately, the troops were also trained people, and they had heard of such things, and when the elders of the village came out, the captain revealed the identity of his group and explained the purpose of coming here. The elders were surprised and delighted when they heard this, although not all of them could understand what the captain said, as long as they did not come to the village to make trouble, they generously accepted them. At dinner, at first, everyone exchanged a few words together, but later almost all of them were the captain and his party talking to the elders about things outside, and the people who talked endlessly and listened were fascinated. At the kind invitation of the elders, the troops stayed for an extra night, and later the elders talked about their wishes, wanting the country to send a teacher over to end the history of Zhenlong Village without culture, and the captain agreed without hesitation. Let's turn the clock back to 2005. Now Zhenlong Village is much better than before, when the captain returned to the camp to report to his superiors what he found, through the level by level, half a year later the relevant departments sent someone to take over the village and also sent a volunteer teacher. However, backward transportation is still the number one problem hindering the development of the village, and Zhenlong Village is still backward. Zhenlong Village is located in the mountainous area of the western part of our country, the mountains are high and the forests are dense, the terrain is precipitous, you can only rely on walking to Zhenlong Village, the mountain road alone will take about five days, during which there are often jackals, tigers and leopards and other fierce beasts infested, it can be said that it is dangerous, nine deaths and one life. However, the scenery of Zhenlong is very beautiful, the whole village is located in two winding and circling majestic mountains, there is a river in the east of the village, it is the mother river of Zhenlong people, called "pearl", the water of "pearl" is very clear, and the calm water surface has always been covered with a layer of mist. Looking at the village from the mountain, the houses of the village loom among the neat ridges and woods and shrubs, and the gray walls and black tiles, as well as the curling smoke, are a harmonious beauty. Looking at the mountains from the village, there is "life" everywhere, red fruits, green leaves, rabbits, and flying birds, a scene full of vitality, which is a kind of natural beauty. The village covers an area of more than 3,000 acres, with more than 500 households and a total population of 1,200 people. The public cemetery of the Zhenlong people is a large hill downstream of the "pearl". Three major events have happened in the village recently. First things first: After the continuous efforts of Mr. Yan, the government sent a new teacher to the village to teach, and it is said that he is still a recent college graduate. Teacher Yan unfortunately fell ill in bed for almost half a year because of overwork, he felt that his time was short, he saw that the children in the village had no books to read, he felt very uncomfortable, and wrote several letters to the provincial Ministry of Education, expressing his strong desire to transfer teachers to come in, and now this matter has finally been done. The second thing: Zhenlong Village is about to be electrified. At this moment, Village Chief Wang is leading 25 young and middle-aged masters in the village to cooperate with the State Grid Project to work overtime to erect power lines, and when the new teacher comes, the whole village will be able to use electricity. This indicates that the life of Zhenlong Village has reached a new level. The third thing: The fourth child of the Li family is crazy, it is said that he was frightened by something when he was fetching water by the river the day before yesterday, when Li Laosi ran all the way, crying and shouting, "There are ghosts, there are ghosts!" Everyone heard the sound and ran out, only to see that Li Laosi's clothes were hung with a big hole, and the shoes on his right foot didn't know where they fell, his feet suddenly became weak and fell to the ground, and the two burly guys helped the fourth child to the corner of the wall and leaned on, and after a while, the fourth child's pants were also wet, and a smell of feces and urine came to his nose. Everyone was eager to know what had scared him like this, but the fourth didn't open his mouth again, just stared at two empty eyes. A few people who had just returned from the river to see the situation shook their heads at the crowd, saying that there was nothing on the river, only one of the fourth child's shoes and the fragments of clothes hanging on the bushes, and that the bucket might have floated away with the river. Today is the first day that the new teacher Zhao Qing came to Zhenlong Village, and the village held a banquet at the village government to catch the wind for Teacher Zhao, and also to comfort the deputy village chief Zhang and his party who traveled thousands of miles to pick up Teacher Zhao. However, the village chief Wang ran into the village in a panic with an accompanying villager, and was about to rush to the village government. Village Chief Wang suddenly stopped, stopped the villager who was running with one hand, and then turned his head to the group of children, with a gloomy face, and asked in a trembling voice, "New ...... The new teacher has arrived...... Come on? "Yes, yes," the children replied excitedly, "I'm eating and drinking at the village government now, Uncle Wang, can you get electricity today?" "Hurry...... It's almost ...... It's almost time" Everyone at the banquet was talking, and suddenly a simple voice came from outside the door, "Zhao ...... Teacher Zhao can be regarded as looking forward to you, our children in Zhenlong have books to read again! Then he walked in a familiar figure who was so excited that his face was flushed and his whole body was still trembling, it turned out to be Village Chief Wang who had just returned to the village, and Village Chief Wang kept waving at Teacher Zhao, "Lao Wang, I thank you on behalf of the whole village!" Seeing that he was about to kneel, Xiao Zhao hurriedly went to pick it up, and kept saying, "You get up, you get up quickly", Xiao Zhao, who had never encountered this situation, was a little moved, and desperately dragged Village Chief Wang up, "I can't stand it, uncle, we will be a family in the future, don't see each other like this." Soon, another pair of chopsticks was added to the table. After everyone exchanged a few words of greeting, Deputy Village Chief Zhang began to ask Village Chief Wang, "Hey, Lao Wang, how are the wires over there, can you get electricity today?" I picked up our little teacher Zhao on time, don't forget that we have a bet, who said that he must complete the task before me? "Ah...... It's not that it's ...... Is it within today, still ...... today It's not that it's not ...... Haven't you been? Village Chief Wang was asked by Deputy Village Chief Zhang, and it seemed very unnatural, "Seeing that you are nervous like that, you must not have done it well, come on, come on, punish a bowl of wine first!" Deputy Village Chief Zhang frowned, glanced at Zhao Qing guiltily, and looked at Village Chief Wang, "No, no, no, first punish three bowls of wine!" "Uncle Zhang, don't embarrass Uncle Wang, it's not so easy to set up wires, you can't do it quickly, you have to do it in a down-to-earth manner, we all believe that Uncle Wang has done his best," Zhao Qing hurriedly helped to play a round for Village Chief Wang. Okay, okay, Xiao Zhang, don't embarrass Xiao Wang, Teacher Xiao Zhao is not in a hurry, what are you anxious about," the elders present spoke, and Deputy Village Chief Zhang did not challenge Village Chief Wang again. When the banquet was over, Village Chief Wang pulled Deputy Village Chief Zhang to the upstairs office, saw that there was no one outside the door, and quickly locked the door. At this moment, Village Chief Wang, who had been holding back his thoughts for a long time, couldn't help it, grabbed Deputy Village Chief Zhang's right big arm, and cried loudly, "Old Zhang, something is wrong!" We've had a lot of deaths! You must not let Teacher Xiao Zhao know, otherwise he will definitely leave Zhenlong Village! Deputy Village Chief Zhang was stunned for a moment, thinking of the strange actions of Village Chief Wang at the reception banquet, he felt the seriousness of the matter, and asked eagerly, "What's wrong, who died?" You mean! Village Chief Wang sobbed hurriedly, took a few deep breaths and said in a hoarse voice, "We are the only ones left in the team to set up the wires, only me and Li Erwa from the East Village, and the others are all dead!" All dead! It's in the tall woods not far from the cemetery of our Zhenlong Village! "The day before Li Laosi was scared silly, Village Chief Wang led the team to erect the wires and successfully erected the wires to the location of the Zhenlong cemetery, which is three kilometers away from the village. At most, the village will be powered in two days, and the team can go back to the village for the night, but the village chief Wang, who has already won the battle, wants to surprise the whole village, and after today's task is overcompleted, the village chief Wang arranges the team to spend the night in a tall forest not far from the cemetery. In order to prevent wild beasts, everyone found some branches and built a large bonfire, and the twenty-seventh person gathered around the bonfire, simply covered his coat and fell asleep, and the remaining three people were responsible for keeping vigil. It was about one o'clock in the morning, Village Chief Wang, Li Erwa and Xie Xiaowu were woken up by the last round of vigils, Village Chief Wang rubbed his sleepy eyes, looked at the bright full moon in the night sky, and his heart was suddenly full of joy. Village Chief Wang looked at the bonfire, which was about to burn out, touched the stacked firewood, and found that the firewood had also run out, so he whispered to Li Erwa to collect firewood and let Xie Xiaowu stay alone. There was no firewood in the vicinity closer, taking advantage of the bright moonlight, Village Chief Wang took Li Erwa to a farther place, and after walking for about ten minutes, the woods suddenly began to fog, and it became thicker and thicker, and soon the visibility was less than ten meters. Village Chief Wang thought badly, he was going to get lost, so he hurriedly grabbed the firewood he picked up and Li Erwa to rush back, halfway they heard the noise from the direction of their team, and felt that something big had happened, their heartstrings tightened, and they threw down the firewood and ran desperately to the station, at this time the visibility was getting lower and lower, it was less than two meters, Village Chief Wang and Li Erwa didn't care too much, just ran in the direction where the shouting came from, "Bang, bang!" After two muffled sounds, the two of them crashed into the same big tree at the same time and fainted. By the time the two of them woke up, it was already dawn, the sun was dazzling overhead, the fog had long since dissipated, and after ten thousand rays of light passed through the forest, everything in the high woods became clear, and the birds were still singing happily in the branches, flying from one end to the other, happily resting, and there was a harmonious atmosphere in the high woods. The two men held each other and continued to make their way to the station, desperate to know what had happened last night and whether their teammates were safe now. Finally, they arrived at the station they had been at last night. It was a strange and terrifying location, with the corpses of the team lying on the ground, most of them incomplete, and dried blood stains everywhere. "Ah......", after a miserable scream, Li Erwa's eyes were black, her feet were weak, and she fainted on the ground. Village Chief Wang barely managed to hold on, he tried not to let himself fall by holding on to the trunk of a small tree, and shouted a large list of people's names in a hoarse voice, "Little Five! Lao Liu! Da Ming! Luo Maniac! ......" cried out in grief, "where are you?!" Come out and don't hide! Perhaps he really heard the call of the village chief Wang, and the village chief Wang saw that there was a person in the crowd who fell in front of him, and quickly stumbled towards the person, and when he approached, the village chief Wang was startled, and saw that there was a heavy scratch on the back of this person, the blood had soaked his clothes, and the milky white bones were looming in the depths of the wound. Village Chief Wang put his right hand around the man's back and carefully flipped him over, it turned out to be Xie Xiaowu, "Xiao Wu, bear with me, I'll send you to the doctor right away!" Village Chief Wang burst into tears, "What the hell, what is it that has harmed you like this!" Seeing Xie Xiaowu chattering incessantly, Village Chief Wang gently put his ear to it, "Village...... The village chief is ...... Run, there's ...... There's dirt, and it's stealing from behind...... Sneak attack...... Attack me," "Wow" Xie Xiaowu spat out a mouthful of blood, paused and continued, "Kill ...... Kill all the ...... The whole team. After speaking, he pushed the chest of the village chief Wang, signaled him to leave quickly, and never spoke again. Village Chief Wang covered Xie Xiaowu's body with his coat, then shook Li Erwa, who had fainted, and cremated and buried his dead teammates on the spot. After explaining to Li Erwa that the matter could not be explained to the third person at will, the two of them hurried to Zhenlong Village. Now there is a third person who knows about this matter, he is Deputy Village Chief Zhang, Village Chief Wang knows that Deputy Village Chief Zhang will definitely keep a secret for himself, so he told him, Li Erwa has listened to Village Chief Wang since she was a child, and I believe he will not talk nonsense, and when they rushed back along the way, they also made up an excuse, so they said that they would come back to get important things. "What do you want to do now? I can help you hide when so many people have died," Deputy Village Chief Zhang asked with a solemn face. "You must not tell Mr. Zhao! Otherwise, he will definitely be scared away, Teacher Yan has worked hard to help us get a teacher in Zhenlong Village, I can't afford to lose it! I've been trying to hide this as a purpose! When it comes to dirty things, no one will believe them even if they say it. The Buddha blessed that thing, don't come to our Zhenlong Village. "Village Chief Wang said." Lao Wang, there is something I have to tell you," Deputy Village Chief Zhang had to tell Village Chief Wang that Li Laosi was frightened crazy by the "water ghost" when he was fetching water, "The fourth elder of the Li family is crazy, I heard that he met a water ghost, but fortunately he didn't kill him, it happened the day before yesterday, that is to say, it came to our village one step ahead of you, and now the matter is already very critical, what do you say to do now?" "What! Mix...... Bastard! I'm going to slaughter ...... Slaughter it! Village Chief Wang was angry and frightened, "This matter must be known to the superiors, whether they believe it or not, I will take Li Erwa out of the mountain to report the news immediately!" After eating the reception, Teacher Yan called Zhao Qing to his sickbed. Zhao Qing saw that the small desk in front of Teacher Yan's bed was full of fruits and eggs sent by the villagers, and there was a little girl in the house who took care of Teacher Yan. "Teacher Yan, are you getting better?" Zhao Qing asked with concern. "It's much better, sit down quickly," Teacher Yan said with a smile, "I'm glad that you can come, Xiao Zhao, now Zhenlong's children have books to read again." Zhenlong people have always been hospitable, such a kind and simple person is trapped in this poor mountain col and can't get out, who can't bear to see it, I know that my days are numbered, but I really hope that you can stay to teach the children of Zhenlong, cough cough," Teacher Yan became more and more excited, and a line of muddy tears crossed his wrinkled cheeks, but he couldn't stop, "Can you promise me, never abandon Zhenlong people!" I know how shameful it is for you to make a decision that delays your future, but I ...... I," Zhao Qing hugged Teacher Yan and said emotionally, "Teacher Yan, don't say it, I have been mentally prepared when I chose to come here, and I will tell you that I have been an orphan since I was a child, and I have rarely received the love of others, but after I came to Zhenlong Village, I found that everyone here loves me, always shush me and ask for warmth, and take care of me, I have already secretly sworn that I will take root here in the future!" "Teacher Yan passed away the day after Village Chief Wang took Li Erwa out of the mountain, Teacher Yan left with a smile, and his face was still so kind after he passed away, as if he was just asleep. The grief-stricken Zhenlong people held a grand funeral for Teacher Yan and buried him in the public cemetery of Zhenlong Village. Not everyone went to Teacher Yan's funeral, except for the old and weak women and children in the village who stayed to cook for everyone, and Li Laosi, who was scared stupid by the water ghost. Li Laosi sat alone on the threshold of his house, staring blankly at the sky, his mouth wide open. "Fourth ......", suddenly a soft woman's voice came from somewhere, Li Laosi looked around with a dull face, "Fourth ......", the voice sounded again, with a slight cold smile, Li Laosi swung his head to the position of "Pearl", slowly stood up, and staggered towards it. When he arrived at the river, Li Laosi simply sat on the river bank and put his feet into the river to stir up the water. Granny Luo, who was in charge of supervising Li Laosi, also found the door at this time, "Si'er...... Si'er ......" screamed a few times in a row and did not respond, then came to the river to find, found that Li Laosi was sitting on the riverside pounding water and playing, finally relieved, just when she was going to go over to pull Li Laosi, "whoosh", Li Laosi seemed to be dragged into the river by something, and immediately sank into the water and disappeared, in an instant, the red blood came up one by one, and Granny Luo exclaimed when she saw this, "Someone is dead, the water ghost is killing!" "Soon the river was full of people, including Deputy Village Chief Zhang and Zhao Qing, who went to attend Teacher Yan's funeral." Maybe there is some fierce fish in the river, and we have to find a way to catch it, so that it will not harm the village again in the future," Zhao Qing said resolutely. "Yes, I agree," Deputy Village Chief Zhang hurriedly agreed, "I will organize people to round up the water monster as soon as possible, and Teacher Xiao Zhao will go to rest first, after all, you have taken a lot of trouble for Teacher Yan's affairs." "No, the matter of Zhenlong Village is my business, for this matter, I must do my part, otherwise how can you make me feel at ease," Zhao Qing immediately rejected the kindness of Deputy Village Chief Zhang, and tried his best to participate in the crowd of people who wanted to arrest the "water monster", "Folks, as a member of Zhenlong Village, seeing his compatriots being killed, how can he sit idly by, who is willing to hunt down the water monster with me and avenge the fourth child?" "I do!" "I do!" "I do, too!" "Avenge the fourth!" Seeing that the villagers' emotions were so excited by Zhao Qing, Deputy Village Chief Zhang was also helpless at the moment, and kept praying in his heart, "Lao Wang, hurry up and bring a helper back, I can't stand it!" ”
